Klogr Release Lord Of The Flies Inspired Video Ahead Of New Album & Tour With The Rasmus

The alternative rock/metal band, KLOGR, have released a music video for their brand new single 'Sleeping Through The Seasons'.

The song, as well as the other tracks from the forthcoming new album 'Keystone', was recorded at Zeta Factory Studio and mixed at Mainstation Studio in Toronto, Canada, by Grammy winning producer David Bottrill who has previously worked with Dream Theater, Stone Sour, Tool, Rush, and more.

The video was inspired by the novel (and movie) 'Lord Of The Flies' (as written by Nobel prize-winning author William Golding) which focuses on a group of British boys stranded on an uninhabited island and their disastrous attempt to govern themselves. The storyboard for Klogr's new music video was created by Andrea Saltini (the author of 'Keystone's' artwork) and Chiara Silvestri (art director). 'Sleeping Through the Seasons' video shoot was handled by Roberto Zampa (director of Klogr videos for 'King of Unknown', 'Breaking Down', 'Breathing Heart') and Matteo Pasquali (director of Klogr videos 'Bleeding' and 'Draw Closer') who took care of the direction and editing.

Klogr guitarist / frontman Rusty says,“When I talked to Andrea Saltini about the concept of the album, he shared with me his interpretation inspired by the novel/movie 'Lord Of The Flies'. I really loved his idea because it seems a wide way to see the album as a whole in one music video . It is always exciting to meet other artists’ (painters, designers, art directors, and writers) point of views so they can give you other interpretations of your work.”

'Sleeping Through the Seasons' is taken from Klogr's forthcoming studio album ,'Keystone', which will be released on 6th October via Zeta Factory / PHD. It's the second single to be taken from the new album following lead song 'Prison Of Light': https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iyj3cq0JrAs

Klogr are special guests to The Rasmus on their 'Dark Matters' European tour this November.

Brighton punk rockers are back and hitting hard once again with their new video single 'Marco'. They have released a powerful video to accompany the song which was directed by Graham Cullis.

Check out the video for 'Marco' below:

The band states that: "The Message in this video is primarily to promote mental health illness awareness and how we need to cure the mind to help prevent tragedy that often occurs due to ignorance of others dismissing the people that need help."

Although ‘Marco’ was inspired by shootings in the USA such as the Stoneman Douglas High School incident and the YouTube attack in this video shows that gun control is something that needs to be addressed globally. As well as some cases in the US the video also shows footage of the Nairobi mall massacre in Kenya and the aftermath of the Dunblane Primary School in Scotland. SONS are fully behind any campaign aimed at tightening gun laws and making people more responsible with their firearms so th…
